Description and technical sheet
The Barbera d'Alba DOC Francia 2022 by Giacomo Conterno represents a pinnacle of excellence in the Piedmont wine scene, a region renowned for its rich and complex red wines. This Barbera is crafted from selected grapes from the historic Francia estate, located in Serralunga d'Alba. The vineyards, planted in calcareous-clay soils at an altitude of about 350 meters, benefit from an ideal microclimate for grape maturation. Vinification takes place in stainless steel, followed by about 12 months of aging in wooden barrels, which imparts a balanced structure and intriguing complexity to the wine.
Barbera d'Alba DOC Francia 2022 - Giacomo Conterno: Tasting Notes
The Barbera d'Alba DOC Francia 2022 displays a deep, vibrant ruby red color in the glass. On the nose, it reveals an enveloping aromatic bouquet of ripe red fruits, including cherries and raspberries, complemented by delicate hints of sweet spices and floral notes of violet. The aromatic complexity is further enhanced by subtle undertones of underbrush and a light touch of wood, adding depth to the profile. On the palate, the wine is vibrant and dynamic, with lively freshness and well-integrated tannins supporting a medium body and a long finish. The finish features a pleasing note of red fruit and a slight spiciness, making it an ideal match for roasted meats, rich pasta dishes, or aged cheeses.
